Architect Bart Conterio, with his office at Lecce, is specialized in sustainable design ( bioclimatic architecture, green building and energy efficiency design), with a project approach that focuses on the value of simplicity (….doing more with less).
He performed various works, in Italy and abroad, mainly in residential buildings, hotel buildings and Architectural restoration of valuable historical and artistic buildings, thus acquiring a great experience on site.
For several years he has been conducting research in sustainable architecture in CLIMA CSA (temperate hot Mediterranean climate with summer drought) and high efficiency energy building in Mediterranean climate zone and hot climate regions (Net Zero Energy Buildings, passive houses, solar homes in mild-humid-temperate climates), in designing innovative solutions that allow high quality living at an extremely accessible cost.
The concept of ‘efficient design’ is not limited to energy saving and sustainability of the work, but includes the optimization and rationalization of functional spaces distribution, within a building, reducing the use of materials also through light prefabricated dry layered techniques.
Some of his projects have been published in the the following reviews: Detail, Vogue, Time, Vanity Fair, World of Interior, Wall Street Journal Magazine, New York Times, Luxury Travel Magazine, WWD, AD, Ottagono, Modulo, Abitare, Suite, Hotel Domani, Condé Nast-Traveller, Biocasa, Turismo d’Italia, Code, Bravacasa, Ambiente Casa, Case architetture, Impianti Building.
